Earlier this fall, one of my EE hens disapeared and I was sure that a coon got her. Today, she materialized out of the bog with 10 (!!!!!) chicks in tow!!!!! You could knock me over with a feather. I have NO idea how she survived, let alone hatched 10 healthy chicks in below freezing...

As I am sitting here at the computer, I can look out our picture window and see a ginormous immature bald eagle preening itself on a branch of a red maple tree in our front yard overlooking our lake. Normally, we get a lot of them in the spring when the ice is breaking up, and its no biggie...

Yes, we all know that made from scratch is best, but most of us have some beloved "quickie" food that we secretly adore. Mine is Roasted Red Pepper Tomato Soup from Trader Joe's. That stuff is soooo divine, I would serve it at a dinner party and call it my own! Whats yours?

On the way home from the beach a couple of days ago, I spotted these beauties on a tree on the side of the highway. So of course I hit the brakes and waded across a tick ridden, quasi-swamp ditch to fill my hat with the most fragrant, wonderful oyster mushrooms ever! I cooked them up...

I think we should start a thread where everyone can post "inspirational" pics of their meat birds who have, erm, fulfilled their destiny. Sometimes its tough to psych yourself up for doing the deed, so maybe this thread will help . Oh, and should we post recipes here or on the recipe thread...
